Muhuhu (Brachyleana hutchinsii) African Sandalwood Essential Oil

$28.00

Muhuhu is an uncommon essential oil and has a soft woody Sandalwood like aroma that only gets better with age. Our Muhuhu Essential Oil, also known as African Sandalwood, is hydrodistilled from wild gathered wood of the Muhugwe tree in Kenya. Similar to Sandalwood essential oils, Muhuhu is high in sesquiterpenes, which gives the oil emollient, tonic, sedative, and powerful anti-inflammatory properties. In addition to its aroma therapeutic benefits, Muhuhu Oil is a very pleasing rare woody note for perfumery. Pair with florals, patchouli, vanilla or vetiver. Muhuhu blends well with most other oils lending a smooth precious wood base note.

A different wood note

I try many wood oils and this one is very woody like a cedar is woody - but, to me, it’s less forest and more lumber yard. And I love it.
It just smells more of straight up wood to me - like I’m at the Home Depot and surrounded by the cut wood.
It is nice to have this option for another very woody but different wood note that is familiar and comforting.
